Q&A: Getting to Know ... Virginia Tech's Angela Tincher

Recently, theACC.com sat down with Hokie pitcher Angela Tincher to talk to her about the upcoming ACC Tournament, her senior season winding down and her thoughts on no-hitting the U.S. National Team [NOTE: that game is being broadcast this coming Tuesday, May 6 at 7 p.m., Eastern on ESPN2].

Here's an excerpt from the Q&A:
When did you start playing softball?I started in the Little League system when I was nine. No one specific (got me into it). I think they were talking about sign-ups for it at school so I bugged my parents until they let me sign up.

What other teams have you competed on leading up to your college career?I played Little League for a couple of years and then with the Roanoke Scrappers, a 14-and-under travel team, before a few years with their 18-and-under squad. Then I played with the Shamrocks out of northern Virginia for a year before I came to college.
